Jeff Probst, president and CEO of Fort Collins-based Blue Sun, said the company would have 50 fueling stations by the end of this year.

Blue Sun has been bounced around a bit in its quest to build a production plant. Initially targeted to be adjacent to a proposed ethanol plant in Johnstow, Blue Sun next shot for Alamosa as the plant’s site.

The Alamosa site, which was to be part of a fuel terminal and operational by this May, fell through when complaints delayed the project.

Currently, Blue Sun is trying to close on a site in Monte Vista for the $4.4 million production plant.

The site is linked to the Alamosa fuel terminal by a railroad, which would be used to carry 3 million gallons of B100 per year from the plant to the terminal, where it will be mixed to produce the B20.
